Fremont Lucky Supermarket Store Permanently Closes

FREMONT, CA — Friday marked the end of an era for one Fremont neighborhood, when the Lucky Supermarket store on Mission Boulevard closed permanently due to what company officials said was "underperformance."

In addition to the Mission Boulevard site, the chain operates Fremont stores at 5000 Mowry Ave., 34101 Fremont Blvd. and 35820 Fremont Blvd. Impacted workers were given "the opportunity to transfer to our neighboring stores."

"Lucky remains committed to the city of Fremont and continues to serve the community with our other three stores," a company spokesperson said.

In addition to the remaining Fremont stores, Lucky Supermarkets are also in neighboring Union City and in the Tri-Valley communities of Livermore, Pleasanton, San Ramon.

Locations in Dublin and Millbrae also closed on Friday. A Larkspur site closed in April, while a Capitola site closed in August.

Save Mart, based in Central California, still operates around 200 stores under the banners of Lucky, Save Mart, and FoodMaxx.
